Im currently uploading about a 4ish-5ish minute video onto my youtube and its been taking like 20 minutes and im still waiting. I havent used youtube to upload in ages, and I swear I remember when i last used it, that it look like 40 seconds to upload a video.

  • it depends on your connection speed and also the file size you’re uploading… the smaller the file the faster you can upload and complete processing…
    It is recommended that you upload wmv file format… good quality and smaller size.. so faster upload… and also faster processing.
    Using windows movie maker — you have to save it into the proper file format, that is wmv file (use the “save movie file” on the menu at the top left) before upload..
    –for best editing….
    use windows movie maker (included in your windows machine)… it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/etc)…. then save it as video file such as wmv file format… finally upload.
    or .. Just get those clips you want , save & convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces….
    this will help you…. Use ‘zillatube’. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.
    Zillatube produces mpg/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.
    It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/mpg videos with windows movie maker… save your file as wmv and then upload.
    It works very well….just google search for “zillatube”

  • How long it takes depends on how fast your internet connection upload speed is, and on whether or not Youtube is actually working today.
    If you think you’re having trouble with the regular upload page, try installing and using the bulk uploader (the link is on the upload page).

    Sweetheart, it could take up to 4 hours, maybe even longer if the video filled the whole 10 minutes. After that you can’t even view it for a day or two because it’s got to process into Youtube. I usually load them onto there right before I go to bed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS14P2i0_…

  • I have uploaded only a couple and it took a long time. Seems like once it was uploaded it had to be processed before it showed up on my account. So yes. It can take that long. Just let it go and be patient it will get there.
